Series 5, Episode 2

In Episode Two we investigate the challenges presented by the global Obesity epidemic. 61% of adults in Ireland are currently overweight or obese and almost a third of Irish children are now overweight, and we meet patient advocate Susie Birney who reveals the challenges of living with obesity. The links between obesity and diseases such as cancer and diabetes are well known, but we meet the researchers who are increasingly interested in the important role of our immune system – and our Natural Killer cells – in maintaining a healthy body weight.
